About the Cinelli Bootleg brand

Bootleg is a unique bicycle. You cannot buy it only with money; you must be also well aware of what you are buying. Bootleg is the top race bicycle. It is not everyman's bicycle; it cannot be mass-produced and sold in large quantities.
Bootleg is a ghost bicycle, just like certain airplanes, which are invisible to radars. It is a pirate bicycle, like certain ships, recordings or flags.
The black bicycle. The black sheep of the cycle market, a bête noire for competitors, something to be found on the black market at an unknown, yet steadily increasing price. Bootleg bikes are distributed on a limited scale.

Excellent, but specs are wrong
Awesome bike, but my chainring is 46T rather than 48T, which forced me to buy a smaller freewheel to get a suitable ratio.
Also, my rear wheel has something small tumbling around inside of it. Will have to open up and remove at some point, which is kind of annoying.
The saddle is extremely poor quality, but that is fine as most people like me will replace it and gets you more bike for your buck in the end I guess.

Great singlespeed!
It may be that I was used to an old hardtail with fat tires as my urban commuter, but OH MAN does this thing accelerate fast. And it's very light for the price range.
Great value, the frame and cockpit are simply great quality.
My bike came with a 120mm stem, unlike the really short one in the photo. Had to swap to a little shorter one (90mm) to fit my geometry. I'm 173cm and ride the 54cm frame and now it fits me perfect.
The plastic seat had to go right away (Brooks Team Pro suits this bike perfectly), and I changed the cheap flat pedals for SPD's. But I feel like the saddle and pedals are the most personal parts of a bike anyway so most of the buyers will probably switch them out too.
All in all, couldn't be happier. This thing is FAST, and looks great too. A few spokes loosened after just a few kilometers of riding but I guess that's normal for a wheelset straight from the factory. My LBS fixed that in a jiffy and now I just ride the thing. Love it!
If I have to come up with a con, I love the white color theme, but wasn't a fan of ALL white (too much "ghost bike" for me), so I got a black seat, black tyres, and black bar tape. Now it looks great! And I cannot comment on pedals/saddle since I took them off right away, but I bet my bum would be sore from that plastic seat.

Mystic Rats 2012
Great frame and forks - very comfortable on lanes and rough cycle tracks. Solid wheels. Sound tyres that wear well. Hard, hard saddle but suits me and reminds me of the 80s! Great fun.

Smooth ride
Very solid feel - not like many other more urban style fixies out there. Very happy with this and can see me getting years of use out of it as a daily commuter

Hi,I'm 175cm tall and I was trying to reference me to the sizing table (M for Medium) but couldn't reference that to the options in the buying window - 47cm to 58cm.I would appreciate your help.Regards,John

I have this bike in a 58 and im 6ft, its great, but i would never buy a bike classed as xxl ! They are a small size, my xxl is more like a large in other bikes. I also have a Cinelli Gazzetta, which is 58cm, but on the site its classed as a large. Confusing i know.My friend is 5'10 and has this bike in a 56, classed as large.

Answers

Answer:

I can confirm that unfortunately we cannot amend the specifications on this bike from how it is delivered. The changes you would like are simple enough to do so you could do them at home with the correct tools. I hope this helps.

Hi, I'm 171cm tall and its classed under medium. But I do not see small, medium or large. Instead I only see 47cm, 50cm, 52cm and so on.... So which frame am i suppose to get? Would really appreciate the help
